The number of people at a normal jousting tournament can vary depending on the location and popularity of the event. It could range from hundreds to thousands of spectators attending such tournaments.

Siege towers were typically protected with a combination of timber, metal, and sometimes animal hide. The outer shell of the tower was made of thick wooden planks to provide structural integrity and protection. Metal plates were often added to reinforce vulnerable areas like the front and sides. Additionally, animal hide was sometimes used as an extra layer of protection against projectiles like flaming arrows.

A catapult launch lift, also known as a ski jump, is a mechanism used on aircraft carriers to launch aircraft. It involves using a steam or hydraulic system to rapidly accelerate the aircraft along a sloped ramp and into the air. This helps overcome the lack of available runway length on the carrier's deck and enables the aircraft to achieve the necessary takeoff speed.

As the medieval period spanned approx 400 years, what medieval castles looked like could vary a lot depending upon when they were built, what materials were used and the location.

Following the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 until around 1100, castles were mainly motte and bailey type with frames and palisades (fences) made of timber.

From the 12th century onwards these were replaced by castles made of stone, the most substantial being concentric castles. Leeds Castle in Kent built in 1119 is a good example of a concentric castle which is still in tact.

The site for a castle's construction could vary enormously and therefore affected how it was built and how it looked. One example is Bamburgh Castle in Northumberland which was built on very high ground overlooking. Another is Beaumaris Castle in Anglesey which was built on marshland.
